Timeshare: Telemarketing and Phoenix Vacations

Phoenix Vacations and TimesharesBusiness and organization managers use control measures to monitor and measure internal techniques. The measurements are then evaluated to detect modifications which should be implemented in the organization, to achieve the goals set forth by the company. Team B has been tasked with managing an outbound vacation timeshare call center, and will explain what types of measures used to ensure the call center employees are working efficient and effectively towards the company goals. A Call centers is used to promote sales because “having employees spend time on call handling prevents them from doing higher revenue generating tasks, so many companies add employees to manage their call handling. This drives additional overhead costs to a business” (Forlex Sales, 2012). At the Phoenix Vacations and Timeshares Company, the call center is promoting luxury vacations and timeshares, and to ensure that sales quotas are being met training and explanation of the company goals are discussed. First, telemarketers attend a week training to ensure they have the knowledge to sell the product which is offered by the company. Second, the telemarketers receive a written script provided by the company, which should be read verbatim to all potential customers, which includes rebuttals and answers to frequently asked questions. Third, telemarketers are given the company policies, which include work hours, scheduled breaks, and the zero tolerance of the personal use of the company computers and phone. Fourth, goals and objectives for the company will be reviewed so the telemarketer will understand how they are assessed and evaluated.

“Give me a dozen healthy infants, well-formed, and my own specified world to bring them up in and I'll guarantee to take any one at random and train him to become any type of specialist I might select – doctor, lawyer, artist, merchant-chief and, yes, even beggar-man and thief, regardless of his talents, penchants, tendencies, abilities, vocations, and race of his ancestors.” – John B.

Childhood Experiences
To start my idea of Childhood experiences affecting later life, the biological base of behaviour needs to be looked into. A lot of people have tried to prove that genetics play an important role in many aspects of behaviour, these people have proved that complex behaviours related to personality psychopathology and cognition are all influenced to some degree by...

...count weather)!!!! We always play soccer, wiffle ball, and play in the ocean. In the summer I have memories that go all the way back to before I went to preschool. I love summer so much I miss summer when school comes around.
But the best thing about summer is waterparks! I love water parks because the slides are awesome. I love them because I feel like I’m walking on air. I go with my friends to all the water parks in Charleston County. My favorite water park is Whirlin’ Waters in North Charleston. I love it because the water slides are so BIG! I’ve only been there twice but it gives me enough experience to love the park! This is all the stuff I like to do in the summer.
Summer is a time to relax and have fun.
During my summer vacation I plan to do a lot of different things. I think I will start out with going to the pool. Because it will start to get very hot, and I would need a place to cool off.
The second thing I would like to do would be going to a water park called Splash Island. At Splash Island I could swim, play, and slide all I want.
The third thing I want to do is go to Myrtle Beach with my family. It will be the most fun part of my summer. The next thing I plan to do is go diving. I would like to see a sea turtle while I’m diving.
I would want to go to bed at 9:30 every night and have a spend the night every week.
I would love to go to the mall. I plan to play a lot of volleyball I think my summer will be really fun.
I love...

The mass communication manufacture
In the year 2012, social media became one of the most powerful sources for news updates through platforms such as twitter, Facebook and Google. (Wikipedia 11/26/2012) With more than 500 million Facebook users across the world, it’s hard to refute that the social networking site has profoundly changed the way we communicate and share information. (Tina Barseghian 04/16/11) Individuals are expanding the way of using social media every year. Social media includes the following: magazines, internet, social networking, video and dating sites. People see and use media in different ways. As of just last year a comprehensive study proved that kids age eight to eighteen actually manage to pack in almost 11 hours’ worth of media content into seven and a half hours of using media, through ’media multitasking’. (Tina Barseghian 04/16/11)The main important focus with social media is the negative effects it has on children, teenagers, and college students. Ways that social media can affect children, teenagers, and college students is the following: addiction to repeated use, privacy issues to one’s personal life, and limited personal social interaction with others.
The most problematic issue of all is the way in which social media networks undermine the privacy of our children. (Kori Birch 02/28/11).Internet addiction is tied to lack of sleep, poor job or...

...I think everyone should have their own unforgettable experience in their life. Today, I would
like to talk about an unforgettable experience during my last school holidays’ vacation in
Pangkor Laut Resort.
During my last school holidays, I got the opportunity to stay there for 3 days and 2
nights. This resort has privately owned the island of Pangkor Laut and it is located in
Perak.
We left our house at 8 o’clock in the morning. After 3 hours of journey, we have
reached the Lumut jetty. The staffs were so friendly and helpful for helping us to carry our
luggage into the ferry. After 30 minutes journey, we have reached the Pangkor Laut island. It
is so beautiful and peaceful. The staffs in the resort are always ready to help us if we need
any information.
Our rooms are located at the top of the hill. It has a nice view of the sea. The rooms
are spacious for us to rest and sleep and have a large balcony. This island has a white sandy
beach, called Emerald Bay. It is awarded as “One of the World's Top Ten Beaches”.
Besides that, there are Asian and Western restaurants for us to choose for our daily
meal. The seafood is so fresh and nice. Of course, the price is very expensive too.
There are many activities organised by the staff, like jungle trekking, fishing and
snorkelling.
We joined the jungle trekking group which is guided by the experienced staff. We
found many species of flora and fauna in the beautiful rain forest. Besides that, we...

...Almost every family has their own family vacations. Some better than others. You could go to the Hanging Gardens or just a random hotel just to get away from the stress at home. These are some of the best places that I've been to.
The first place I want to talk about is Niagara Falls. If you don't know what Niagara Falls is, get out of that hole you've been living in for seventy years! It's one of the seven natural wonders of the world and the only one that I have ever seen. There are so many attractions to see there it's like six flags up there! There's the Maiden of the Mist boat ride that goes under the falls and gives everyone that feeling in your shoes when they were just soaked by tons of water. There's also a bunch of arcades and restaurants and each one is really expensive. I mean REALLY expensive. A Big Mac at McDonalds is like twelve dollars more than what the price is here.
The falls are shared by New York and Canada, but I saw the Canadian part of the falls. Niagara isn't just the falls though. There's a city in Canada named after the falls and I think the same city runs into the area of New York where the falls are. Since it's a major tourist attraction, I didn't see too many people there that spoke English. I heard millions of different languages rambling around me with gibberish words I've never heard before.
The river that flows into the falls goes really far back, and at one point, it runs through a canyon. There was a car-type-thing...

...﻿ My Ideal Vacation
The first vacation I took with my parents, brothers, uncle and my husband at cox’s bazar in Bangladesh was my ideal vacation. First of all, that was the first time I saw a sea and was totally amazed by seeing the world’s longest natural sandy sea beach. In addition, the view of golden sand glittering from the sun light and the lines of coconut trees made this scenario look amazingly beautiful. Also, I felt very close to the nature when I sat by the sea and heard the roar of the sea waves. Next, we did lots of fun activities, such as open jeep ride from city to Inani beach. The road had breathtaking views of Inani beach on one side, and beautiful mountains and trees on other side. Another example of our fun activity was horse riding. At first, I was very afraid of riding horse, but seeing everyone doing it and having fun gave me courage to do so. It was pretty exciting and I really enjoyed riding horse by the sea shore. Finally, this vacation was interesting learning experience too, and I got to learn about tribes. Fortunately we were able attend one of tribes festivals; and, they perform their rituals by sacrifices animals and dancing around the fire wearing their traditional cloths. Furthermore, the food they eat was very different from our food. They use bamboo, frog and snails in their food which we can’t even imagine to eat. All in all, this trip was exactly happened the way I...

...I am going to Rapid City, South Dakota for my vacation. I chose to go here because it is the first family vacation spot I can remember going to as a child with my parents.
South Dakota is located in the central part of the United States. Rapid City is located in western South Dakota. The weather here changes with the seasons – cold, snowy winters and hot summers.
Hotel I am staying at is the Fairfield inn and suites. We will be staying in the Wa Tiki luxury suite. The room has 2 bedrooms, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen area, and 2.5 bathrooms. It also has a balcony that overlooks the water park. The Wa Tiki water park is the largest indoor water park in the Dakotas. It has 30,000 square feet of water park and 1,000 feet of slides, lazy river, arcade and concessions.
The first attraction I will go to is the Mount Rushmore National Park. Admission is free, but you do have to pay for parking $11 per car for the day. The faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt are carved on the mountain. There is a walkway of every state’s flag on the way up to the monument. You can walk through the wildlife on trails to get a closer look at the monument; however you do not get to climb on the mountain – that’s illegal. There also is the Lincoln Borglum museum that has a lot of artifacts from the building of the monument to see. There also is a gift shop and several places to get a snack or...
